Function jsonc_to_json::jsonc_to_json

pub fn jsonc_to_json(jsonc: &str) -> Cow<'_, str>

Removes all JSON with Comments parts from jsonc, turning it into valid JSON, i.e. removing line comments, block comments, and trailing commas.

• Line comments, e.g. // Line Comment
• Block comments, e.g. /* Block Comment */
• Trailing commas, e.g. [1,2,3,,] -> [1,2,3]

If jsonc is already valid JSON, then Cow::Borrowed(jsonc) is returned, otherwise a new String is allocated and Cow::Owned is returned.

Warning: The conversion is infallible and does not validate jsonc. If it contains invalid JSON or invalid JSON with Comments, then the invalid parts are included in the result, i.e. {foo,/*comment*/bar,} is turned into {foo,bar}.

See also jsonc_to_json_into() for an alternative variant, that reuses an already allocated String.

Example

See also serde_json example in crate root docs.

use jsonc_to_json::{jsonc_to_json, jsonc_to_json_into};

let jsonc = "{\"arr\": [1, 2,/* Comment */ 3, 4,,]}// Line Comment";

let json = jsonc_to_json(jsonc);
println!("{}", json);

Which outputs the following:

{"arr": [1, 2, 3, 4]}
